29 Mar 99 - 06:55 PM (#66773) Subject: Lyrics; Maidens Prayer From: Strange I was wondering if someone might have the words to an old fiddle tune called "Maidens Prayer". I heard it sang one time by an old friend (Earl Nott) and somewhere in the lyrics,as I recall, was "the answer to a maidens prayer". I have searched the data base with no results. Appreciate any help you may be able provide. Strange |

A MAIDEN'S PRAYER Recorded by: Bob Wills w/Tommy Duncan vocal Words and music: Bob Wills Twilight falls, ev'ning shadows find There 'neath the stars, a maiden so fair, divine The moon on high seemed to see her there In her eyes was a light, shinin' ever so bright She whispered a silent prayer. Ev'ry word revealed an empty broken heart Broken by fate that holds them so far apart Lonely there, she kneels and tells the stars above In her arms he belongs, in her prayer is a song Her unending song of love.
